A good movie

I already saw this movie but since it was a while back and since it is available on Disney+, I thought I might as well check it out again. Back then, Disney was finally going through a very nice renaissance, delivering once again some fine animated features and, while watching this one, I thought it could be their best one from this period. Indeed, even though 'Frozen' was a decent flick, to be honest, it didn't really blow me away. On the other hand, this production definitely had some potential. I remember it very well, when I first saw the trailer, I thought 'This looked totally awesome! Hé, I didn't know that Pixar was coming up with a new flick?!?'. Indeed, it looked like a Pixar production, it smelled like a Pixar production but it was in fact a Disney film. When you watch the damned thing, it did become pretty obvious though. Anyway, the whole thing looked amazing and the characters were really neat. Concerning the video-game references, I myself was a hard-core gamer in the 80's-90's so it was pretty much a blast for me but I'm pretty sure that most of the kids won't get those. And finally, what about the story? Well, it was at first very promising giving that awesome feeling that only the best Pixar productions could provide but, then, the plot became rather convoluted pretty quickly. Basically, they had to find some excuses to have Ralph leaving his arcade but what they came up with was never really convincing. Sure, it was still entertaining but the depth was gone after 15-20 minutes. Anyway, to conclude, even though I don't think it was a masterpiece, it is still one of the best animated features produced by Disney lately and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
